At night, Asagami Fujino prepared to summon a Heroic Spirit. Although it was called summoning, the entire Type-Moon World could be said to be hers now; the so-called summoning was just for show.
However, beforehand, Asagami Fujino turned off her control over the Throne of Heroes, her Clairvoyance, and her permissions to the Root. Otherwise, it would be boring to know what she summoned in advance. But with the Super High School Level Luck she bought from the system, Asagami Fujino believed she was definitely a lucky gacha king.
Taking out blood bought from the System Shop for one point (with two points returned), she drew a magic summoning circle on the ground. Although Asagami Fujino could skip these steps, it felt more ceremonial this way.
After drawing the magic circle with blood, Asagami Fujino skipped the incantation entirely.
The red magic circle emitted a brilliant blue light, carrying a faint aura of ice.
Asagami Fujino's beautiful eyebrows arched, her tone a bit surprised: "I didn't expect to actually summon her."
As the brilliant light faded, a graceful young woman appeared on the magic circle.
"Servant, Anastasia, I have answered your summons. Are you my Master?"
"Yes, I am your Master," Asagami Fujino replied with a smile.
Anastasia, full name Anastasia Nikolaevna Romanova, the last Grand Duchess of the Romanov Dynasty of Tsarist Russia. Of course, this refers to the normal progression of history—the so-called Pan-Human History recognized by most. The one Asagami Fujino summoned, however, was a princess born from a different historical progression: Anastasia from a Lostbelt.
Regarding summoning Anastasia, Asagami Fujino's feelings were actually quite complex. Before she transmigrated, she had never pulled Anastasia in the game. Later, she had prepared her Saint Quartz and was determined to pull this princess, but she hadn't expected to transmigrate instead.
However, losing the virtual Anastasia in exchange for a flesh-and-blood one, Asagami Fujino felt it wasn't a loss—it was a huge win!
Her beautiful long silver hair and the bangs on her forehead covered her right eye. Asagami Fujino also really liked her blue pupils.
"Master?" Anastasia called out softly. Asagami Fujino's gaze made her feel a bit shy, her heart involuntarily racing, and her fair cheeks somehow flushed with a faint crimson.
"Forgive my rudeness." Asagami Fujino withdrew her appraising gaze and stepped toward Anastasia. But for every step Asagami Fujino took, Anastasia, for some reason, took a step back.
The corners of Asagami Fujino's mouth curled up as she quickened her pace. Seeing Asagami Fujino get closer and closer, Anastasia felt panicked and backed away, but soon she hit the cold wall. With nowhere to run, Anastasia watched Asagami Fujino walk right up to her, her face turning even redder.
She didn't know why, but the Master before her seemed to possess a special charm, one that could easily break through others' defenses.
"Is it because I've mastered the Root?" Asagami Fujino murmured softly. With the Root permissions, Asagami Fujino was the Master of this world. Even if Anastasia was a figure from a Lostbelt, she still belonged to this world. As the world's Master, Asagami Fujino possessed unparalleled affinity or charm. While those who stayed by her side for a long time might not feel it as strongly, the effect was still there, just less obvious. For the newly summoned Anastasia, this effect was very powerful. Coupled with the fact that Anastasia was summoned by Asagami Fujino, there was a connection between them, plus Asagami Fujino's supply of magical energy, which led to Anastasia's current reaction.
"So cute," Asagami Fujino said softly, her purple eyes looking feverishly at Anastasia. The current Anastasia truly made Asagami Fujino's eyes light up—her blushing cheeks, her blue eyes misty with shyness, and her softly bitten pink lips made Asagami Fujino want to possess her immediately.
Pressing her hands against Anastasia's body, Asagami Fujino lowered her head and kissed Anastasia's soft lips. The startled, shy little creature's body instantly froze.
